My goal was to create a space where stitchers can gather and share their passion for the craft. I carry a range of supplies from The School of Making available for purchase such as Natalie Chanin’s line of books, 100% organic medium weight cotton jersey fabric, button craft thread, embroidery floss, fold-over cotton elastic and a selection of beads and sequins. I also have a limited supply of The School of Making DIY kits available.

Third Thursdays

On the third Thursday of each month, I take over the classroom space in my building. This is a time to come enjoy some stitching and stories with your friends and to share some light refreshments. I hope you decide to join me in The School of Making’s Host-A-Party format where we all work on the same project for a 20% discount. First up, the Swing Skirt.

The classroom all set up and ready to go

Host A Party

In 2015 Alabama Chanin launched a program called Host A Party where if you gather 6 or so friends, and you all choose to work on the same DIY kit, the host will receive their kit for free. I can help facilitate your Host A Party by bringing the necessary tools: needles, scissors and instructions for your party to be a success. See the Alabama Chanin website for more details.
